Mayors unite over ageing roads and bridges
PYRENEES Shire Council has joined forces with neighbouring municipalities in a push to restore road and bridge funding before November’s election. The Greater Ballarat Alliance of Councils, which includes Pyrenees Shire, launched its state election advocacy platform this week calling on the Victorian Government to reinstate a long-term Country Roads and Bridges Program for regional councils.

Mayors met at Natte Yallock on Monday to push their case for improved funding. Pictured are Moorabool Mayor Steve Venditti-Taylor, Golden Plains Shire Mayor Owen Sharkey, Ballarat Mayor Tracey Hargreaves, Hepburn Shire Mayor Tony Clark and Pyrenees Shire Mayor Damian Ferrari. Photo by Craig Wilson.
